It’s a perfect mystery read that you are going to enjoy. With a backdrop of Politics and Government work, it’s thrilling to read how the events turned out to be. It gets more and more exciting with each event, adding more suspense to the story.

The story shifts from Polash’s arrest to Kaya’s case and the way she was treated in Prison. When no one stood up for her, only one person helped her. While few people there did not want Kaya to easily escape, and not take her case, one person took her case and helped her. Who was he? Why he helped and How? Is he the part of the conspiracy too?

As the story proceeds, new characters are introduced making readers think about who wants to destroy Polash’s family and why.

How one loses everything he has earned in his life in a minute and so does his family with a mistake he did and ignored. How our past always haunts us and Karma play its role.

With an intriguing narrative and crisp engrossing writing style, author Saurabh Das weaves a brilliant tale of love, loss, hope, relationships, Drama and Politics.

At times the story gets a bit technical but I loved the way the author keeps readers on their toes with questions in mind and curious about what will happen to the family.

The characters are amazingly sketched by the author. You’ll find every character suspicious and feel they have the motive to destroy this family.

I loved Paarth’s character the most. The way he deals with the situations and grief, the way he does everything for his sister, and the way he solves the case, it’s commendable. I would have loved to read more about him. Aatrei’s character too is a good one and Jayant’s too. Loved VitthalBhai’s part in the story as well. Each character here has a story to tell and will give you a different perspective.

It’s a fast-paced, thrilling story with a smooth flow of words. At times the description of NASA Felt a bit off track but then the details helped in the cases.

Witness the court trials, losing the one you love, losing your power and most importantly facing your past. All the drama in one story.

It’s a book I finished in one sitting as I wanted to solve the mystery and know what happened to Polash and why before I sleep and it was surely worth it.

I loved the last few chapters of the book. When the story started unfolding, layers by layers as Polash faced his past and the events after that. It was thrilling to read. Especially Paarth’s reaction and the way he took the case later. The climax of the story is unpredictable and to the point.

I loved the storyline and the way the events are sequenced, with perfect entertainment and drama straight from Bollywood.
